The center is 6'10" but I don't have his name. Could be an under the radar get. Explorer88 mocks, but it's very intriguing to have more international looks in a few months than the previous coach had in 4 years. Is it not? You figure with all the change with transfer rules that good international players are going to be short changed. With some better domestic players wanting to move up in conference, the majors don’t really have the space to take those kids on.

Lukas is listed as a 6'9" PG. Ugnius listed as a 6' 10" F/C Either/or, they are both big bodies, which is what we need.

Not sure how the portal works, have the Drame twins signed with us or enrolled in school? Don't know how you commit when you are transferring through the portal.

Former Wildwood Catholic Star Taj Thweatt Chooses Temple. Could have helped a lot.

She may be the first to tweet due to access but I don’t think she is doing (or has expertise) to do front line recruiting. When the Drame brothers committed the Mali Doucore connection must have helped and helped him come back through the Portal. That makes sense. Ellen recruiting does not.

The Lithuanian center has grown to 7' and chose the Explorers over the Gauchos. I had a Glenlivet induced vision. I am going to try another pour and see if I can get George Perkins from DC to choose cheesesteaks over rice.

I hope your scotch glasses are right on the commit since the Gauchos are UCSB not UCB :-) I think we have some good access points of influence to steer Lukas here. My only question is - can these guys play A10 level hoops?

The transfer market for a center is very competitive right now so it helps. Probably the most difficult postion to find a valuable player. Also I don’t think he fit Ashley Howard system at all. Hopefully, Dunphy figures out how to utilize him well.

My only question is - can these guys play A10 level hoops? My single malt vision did not include the 2 players 83 mentioned. Apparently there is an abundance of very tall Lithuanians some of whom prefer east coast to west coast. I could not conjure a name nor confirm the commitment on any other recruiting sources but I have always found that a glass of whiskey is better than tea leaves in reading the future. I also may have overheard a conversation on the subject.

Maybe the Doucoure recoil back to La Salle was the center Ellen Reilly was referring to in her tweet?
I haven’t seen anything Lithuanian except on this board which no one can confirm and from someone on Twitter that is a fan but guesses a lot.

I am sure that Ellen was not referring to Doucoure. I agree that there is nothing out there in the recruitment metaverse but she is a very enthusiastic Explorer fan who has sources.

Perhaps, but Doucoure was listed as a power forward on last year's roster so hopefully she's referring to some other center.

I know this comes off as disrespectful- but at 75 years old( Class of 69)- I have the right to be disrespectful 🤔🤔🤔 I’m sure Ellen Reilly means well, but if she had a clue , she would have given us a name already Please forgive me,for my skepticism here
